How Magnolia entrepreneurs can enhance customer experience with AI-powered solutions

Getting to Know the Basics AI and the Customer Experience

Before we get into the specifics let's make sure we all know what we mean by "AI" and "customer experience." AI in business usually refers to technologies that can learn adapt and improve on their own over time. A good example is chatbots that get better at answering questions the more people use them.

Everything about your business that makes a customer think and feel differently about your brand is called customer experience (CX). Everything matters from how quickly you can help to how easy it is to find your contact information.

Now combine the two. AI can help businesses make their interactions with customers more efficient and personal turning a one time buyer into a loyal customer. Check out this summary from Wikipedia for more information.

Personalization on a big scale

One of the best things about AI is that you can make it your own. Imagine going into your favorite store and the staff knows exactly what you like and what you might need. AI can use information about customers to recreate this experience in both the real world and online.

For instance AI can look at how a person buys things and suggest things they might want to buy. Before someone even knows what they want algorithms can figure it out. One of the best in this area is Amazon's recommendation engine. To learn more about how AI makes shopping more personal go to IEEE Xplore.
